    I can see the pics?

    Looks nice, but would have to get the gap in the bar tape by the hoods sorted. :twisted:
    Carlsberg don't make cycle clothing, but if they did it would probably still not be as good as Assos

    Welcome to the forum.
    Very nice build, don't usually go a bundle on Bianchi's but love yours. The paint scheme gives just enough of the celeste with the white saddle,bag and bar tape stopping it from looking too heavy.
    Norfolk, who nicked all the hills?

    That is a truly gorgeous Bianchi.

    I wished mine looked as good as that :cry:

    So where can I get the paint removed off my carbon frame :?:
    Bianchi. There are no alternatives only compromises!

    Not normally a big Bianchi fan but thats nice mate.

    How you finding the Chorus 11 speed ?

    And can you tell us anything about getting a carbon frame resprayed ? Risks, costs, time ?

    Cheers

    Hi people,

    Thanks for the comments!!

    Yeah the frame i believe is a 2005 Bianchi SL which i saved from a not so caring owner.
    I'm really loving the Capag Chorus groupset, it's very efficient and fast. I've had it fitted for just over a year with 0 problems.

    For the paint job, the best palce to go is Argos Racing cycles in Bristol. They are one of the best respray places in the UK. Pricing wise, you're looking at between 150 and 300 pounds depending on the paint scheme you want and the complexity of the design/process. Mine took about 2 months but it all depends on how busy they are. Give them a call they are very helpful. Site below.
